This report draws on mutual learning on [continuing vocational training] CVT, an approach which was designed for the [European Training Foundation] ETF regional project so that each country team could uncover their country's own strengths and share lessons learned. Chapter one discusses the common challenges faced by the seven countries. Demographic trends and economic restructuring are of particular interest as they have broad implications for CVT. Chapter two, which particularly reflects peer contributions, is based on the self-assessment studies performed by the country teams, complemented by subsequent peer-visit reports on the discussions and learning that took place during visits to each country. It discusses enablers and constraints, such as the legislative and institutional setting, policies, CVT supply, quality, governance, social partnership and funding. Chapter three discusses challenges and priorities and analyses the way forward.

This report is a summary of an evaluation which assessed the implementation of vocational skills demonstrations; more specifically, it evaluated the implementation of all vocational skills demonstrations introduced into vocational basic education in 2006. The evaluation focused on vocational skills demonstrations in vocational basic education. Thus, the objects of the evaluation included the vocational education providers and institutions, together with the qualifications and fields of study offered by these institutions.
